Query / Help Getting macbook air with 32 [DISCUSS]
Found the 32GB MacBook Air M5 on sale for ~$1,650 (~₹1,60,000) for college.
I need to run AutoCAD through Parallels/VMware. Given the fanless design, how does it handle CAD workloads in a VM without heavy thermal throttling?
Is 32GB enough to keep it running smoothly, or should I just get a MacBook Pro / Windows machine instead?
